Scope of Work
- Designed to accommodate the addition of six 150,000 barrel carbon steel tanks and three 100,000 barrel tanks
- Design efforts were completed in 3D
- Designed new distribution and tank suction manifolds to connect and operate the tanks
- Prepared specifications, calculations, and drawings for the piping distribution of the main tank farm, new manifold areas and the existing wing manifold areas
- Feed service and MCC installation to operate the new tanks, valves, and pumps
- One API product pump (15,000 bph) and three API transfer pumps (7,500 bph) transfer product from the tanks to the docks, from tanks to pipeline, and from tank to tank
- Two stripping pumps (1,260 bph) to strip out headers at the manifolds and one small stripping pump (100 bph) to strip out the bottom of each product pump
- Provided fire protection for the new tanks and manifold areas by extending the existing fire water line to loop around the new tank area and adding a water deluge system to protect the manifolds
